Social Entrepreneurism

Our March discussion topic was Social Entrepreneurism. Is “social good” a sustainable business goal, alongside profit? Can the two co-exist, or thrive? From micro-banking to social service, from non-profits to “privatization” – ideas are struggling to take form and emerge as new business models, and opportunities for emerging societies, and socially-conscious capitalists. This meeting and discussion will take place two days before the latest APTE (Alleviating Poverty Through Entrepreneurship Summit) on the Ohio state campus (registration is free).
